The ultrasound will tell all.

PS: Don't f'around with this. Can lead to pancreatitis if I'm right and you don't want to go there.
I tell you what, the ultrasound sound today hurt like a motherf-er, and I pressed the ultrasound tech as hard as I could and she was tight lipped which I get. I didn't see anything in the ultrasound that jumped out at me like an alien in my chest but that doesn't me anything.

Also, I monkey F'around with this on the front end for a couple of weeks, thinking it was no big deal. Now (the last few weeks) I have had a change of heart and am being very aggressive about this and I am really leaning on the docs for answers and results.

The Scope is on deck, hopefully between these two tests we can figure this out.
